I know they're extremely popular, and Anime Production Committee at work here, but their songs don't fit a lot of the series they're tied to. I'll watch it once and then skip the OP every time after that. |

I personally really dislike their music and think their songs all sound the same.
I get why, I just wish they would have picked anyone else for a fantasy series. But yeah, I get how powerful they are. I'm still reasonably sure that King Records had Tamura Yukari blacklisted for a few years after she left her contract. |

I like the French title a lot better: "Gluttons & Dragons". Sounds good and it's witty. Although perhaps "Dungeons & Gluttons" would have been better?
First episode was pretty fun. Marcille will probably be my second favorite Elf this season.

I could see why. It dives immediately in with almost no setup, very limited exposition, before immediately escalating the conflict (sister gets eaten, go save her).
Knowing what's coming to somewhat temper it, I still found the first episode to be relentlessly efficient, right on the degree of being a negative trait. It's worth the hype, the narrative structure is just a bit unconventional, especially these first two segments. It feels barebones now, but it is pretty faithful. |

The first two chapters of the manga were nicely animated and I get to hear the audiobook version of Senshi's cooking instructions. I'm not sure what else people were expecting, but as far as adaptations go I'd say this one is really well done so far.

Hearing talk about some upcoming shows is inevitable if you're around enough seasonal watchers so even by that metric something can become overhyped. Still, I at least try to avoid trailers or looking at details before a new series is out. The show can speak for itself.
Anyways, the show thus far. Fun with dungeon creatures and gags, looks like a good time.
